Writer, advocate, issues manager, business strategist, and public relations and media consultant, I cross many worlds and genres.
This website covers both my writing and professional life and offers a glimpse into my professional past and creative future.
RECENT NEWS
In July 2025, I was lucky enough to win a runner's up prize in the J-Novel Club Original Light Novel competition for my novel "The Goddess Forgot to Make Me OP When I Reincarnated in the New World" written under my pen name of Alex Francis.
Now in development, you'll hopefully be able to buy it next year from all good online retailers.
Who am I? Well, I'm not Jean Valjean.
I’m a seasoned contributor to Australia's speculative fiction community, with a rich history of involvement in national conventions and literary initiatives.
Beyond my literary and convention work, I also contribute to strategic transformation and infrastructure planning in my professional roles.
If you can’t wait for “The Goddess Forgot to Make Me OP When I Reincarnated in the New World” then have a look at some of the other works I have had published, as well as glimpses into abandoned words and upcoming adventures.
You can also order books and stories to help feeding starving authors throughout the world - including me.
